Moving Field off screen - cursor stays

[Mark Cunningham]

Hi,

I have a behavior which hides and shows sprites by moving them on and off
stage. However, if I move a field off stage, and there are no other
editable fields in the frame, then the cursor continues to flash where the
field was.

I have managed to get a fix by creating a 2nd dummy field which is
constantly off stage and when I move my main field off stage I shift the
keyboardFocusSprite to the dummy field. It works, but it's not particularly
elegant.

Anyone else encountered this problem and have a better solution?

Thanks

Mark

I'm sure you've got a good reason, but why don't you just make the sprite
invisible?
